I've just began working with pyFoam (which seems pretty well designed so far...). But I'm a bit confused about the projekt structure:

There is http://sourceforge.net/projects/pyfoam/ which says that the project has moved to pyFlu... the homepage of pyFlu though makes not mention of that (beside one sentence). The current released package contains no sign of pyFoam and on the projekt page I found no reference to a VCS (subersion, git, ...).

The openFoam community seems to be suffering some not-invented-here syndrome

Here is some explanation on this point :

Actually, this was an accidental name collision, not "me-not-invented-yet" syndrome. To resolve this issue VulaSHAKA's pyFoam project was recently renamed to pythonFlu. So, if you are interested into enhancing your CFD calculation environment with some kind of automation and interactivity, OpenFOAM community will be happy to supply you with two different approaches, at least - what ever you prefer .
